Set on more than seven waterfront acres, this Massachusetts estate has a lot going for it, inside and out. It's a tough call, but we think the rustic-yet-elegant living room is our favorite feature of this gorgeous home. Or maybe it's the graceful landscaping, lined with perfectly manicured hedges. No, we're pretty sure it's the living room.

The owners enlisted European craftsmen to help design the residence, and the results are stunning: the soaring brick wall in the living room, the dark stone countertops in the kitchen, the barrel ceiling in the master bedroom. But don't let the antique-inspired details fool you: This house is equipped with the best smart home technology out there.

Best of all, every inch of the property -- including the infinity-edge pool and the surrounding stone patios -- has a prime view of the surrounding water. Check out the photo gallery below to see for yourself.
